New House to Focus on Latin American Translations By Ed Nawotka | Dec 17, 2020
With nearly 60 million Americans identifying as Hispanic, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, there is a fast-growing, untapped market for children’s stories from Latin America. Tapioca Stories is a new children’s book publisher that aims to fill that demand. The house launched earlier this year and released its first two titles this December. The first is from Argentina,
The Elevator by Yael Frankel, translated from the Spanish by Kit Maude. The second title is
The Invisible, a book of Brazilian poetry by Alcides Villaça and Andrés Sandoval, translated from the Portuguese by Flávia Rocha, with Endi Bogue Hartigan.
